First trailer for Jodorowsky's Dune

A documentary of Alejandro Jodorowsky's attempts to bring Frank Herbert's Dune to the screen, here's the trailer for Jodorowsky's Dune.

Now we can't wait to see this. Back in the 1970s, Alejandro Jodorowsky attempted to make a big screen take on Frank Herbert's novel Dune. Even today, fresh attempts to make a film based on the book struggle, but there's a real sense that this 1970s take is one of the great lost science-fiction movies.

Now, a documentary has charted Jodorowsky's attempts to bring Dune to the big screen, and how the project fell apart after two years of work. That said, lots of concept work was done, and it got some way down the road. The documentary features key interviews and access to lots of behind the scenes material.

The first trailer for Jodorowsky's Dune has now been released too, and we've got it for you here. We'll keep you posted if we get any semblance of a UK release date...
